Head and brain injuries can turn life upside down in an instant. Whether it's a concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), or a skull fracture, these injuries can lead to serious medical issues, lost wages, and emotional distress.

The legal process can be overwhelming—but securing fair compensation shouldn’t be.

Common Causes of Head and Brain Injuries

  • Workplace accidents (falls, falling objects, equipment malfunctions)
  • Car and motorcycle crashes
  • Slip-and-fall incidents
  • Assaults and acts of violence
  • Sports and recreational injuries

Signs and Symptoms to Watch For

Some symptoms appear immediately, while others develop over time. Common indicators include:

Mild Symptoms Severe Symptoms
Headaches Loss of consciousness
Dizziness Seizures
Nausea Slurred speech
Confusion Memory loss
Sensitivity to light Paralysis

If any of these symptoms occur, seeking immediate medical attention is crucial.

Workers’ Compensation for Head and Brain Injuries

Suffering a head or brain injury on the job? Workers' compensation should cover medical bills, rehabilitation, and lost wages. However, insurance companies often deny or undervalue claims.

Why Legal Representation Matters

Filing a claim without legal help can be tricky—paperwork errors, delays, and denials are common. An experienced attorney ensures that every detail is handled correctly, fighting for the compensation deserved.

Appealing a Denied Claim

Was your claim denied? Don't give up. Many cases get rejected due to missing documents, employer disputes, or insurer pushback. Appealing is possible, and legal guidance makes all the difference.

Steps to appeal denied claims.
